With quite a big probability, one can say that we add some ancient virus every day. At least we try to. Although new viruses has a higher priority, one of our goals is to improve ClamAV's detection "width" in general. > I'm not asking for precise figures, just something a little more concrete > than "we add old and new viruses".

But we not always know whether a virus is old or new. Some possible situations in which it's not known: a) none of scanners detects a virus because it's a new one, b) none of scanners detects a virus because it's very little popular, though old, c) some scanners do detect a virus but the vendor hasn't published details about it (especially the date). And, doing detailed survey is time-consuming. Protecting our users, hence adding a signature, is more important than doing a broad study of each virus.

And what does it mean "old"? :-) Older than a week? A month? A year? Also, there are viruses, which are "old" (known for quite a long time) but still met in the wild. So, in a "activity" aspect, they are still "not old", still threatening. > Would it be fair to say that when a new update comes out that it has > likely been triggered by a recent discovery?

It is ready to install and works fine on Solaris 8 and 9. I currently have the SPARC package, but I can also make a x86 package if someone needs it. Let me know. One small caveat, I am a package maintainer for blastwave.org and my package depends on our common package. If you are currently not setup for packages from blastwave, it is very simple to do and I recommend it. See http://www.blastwave.org If push comes to shove, I can easily remove the dependency, but I do plan to make clamav available from blastwave, which will take care of the dependency.

I do not know of any Open Source A-V products for Windows, however you should have no difficulty finding A-V scanners for Windows which are free to use, especially if the machine is a personal (home) computer rather than a corporate system.

There are installed in a different place now, and your path may be finding the 6.5 one before the 6.0 one. -- Daniel J McDonald, CCIE 2495, CNX Austin Energy --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.

[Clamav-users] clamd scan failure
I have tried repeatedly to get clamdscan to work, but It doesn't on my RH 8.0 model. I rhink the problem is with a non-functioning clamd. The error is connect(): connection refused Error: can't connect to clamd. I recompiled everything from scratch, changed the conf file and still have problems. Do I have to do anything with Clamuko to get clamd to work? Can someone give me a short, but detailed set of instructions on how to get clamd up and to test it? --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.

Re: [Clamav-users] Re: Are there any open source virus scanners for windows desktop?
Actually, ClamAV would be a bad option for Win32 desktop scanner, as - it does not include a code emulation which makes it useless against polymorphic viruses. - it does not have OLE2 engine which makes it unable to detect practically all macro viruses. - no frontend currently exists to implement real-time on-access scan on Win32 platform (no clamuko for Windows). However, it is perfect for "integration with mail servers (attachment scanning)". So if you have a mail server that runs under Win32 (like CommuniGate Pro), and can find (or make) the plugin for clamav (like cgpav), then clamav-win32 might be a good choice. For on-demand scanner, "clamscan /cygdrive/c" should work. Fajar Nugraha Edward Terry wrote: You can find ClamAV for Windows (implemented via Cygwin) at http://www.sosdg.org/clamav-win32/index.php.
